About this property
Escape to the heart of the Cornish countryside and stay at this charming stone-built retreat that’s perfect for couples or a family. Its cosy living space features a wood burner and there’s a delightful suntrap garden offering wonderful rural views.
This tranquil holiday home boasts a charming open-plan lounge/diner/kitchen, complete with rustic beams and breathtaking views of the rolling countryside. Sit back and unwind on the comfortable seating in front of the cosy wood burner on chilly evenings. Choose between two delightful king-size bedrooms, one can be a twin on request, both with en-suite facilities, and Hypnos mattresses to ensure a restful night’s sleep. Step outside, and you’ll find a lovely rear patio, sheltered by the barn walls, with a second patio in the front garden, complete with a table, chairs, and BBQ, ideal for al fresco dining or just relaxing and enjoying the peaceful surroundings.
The cottage is located in mid-Cornwall, on the edge of Bodmin Moor, a designated Dark Sky area where you can gaze at starry night skies free of light pollution. You’ll find all the essentials at the local village store at St Tudy, and the nearby traditional pub at St Breward offers a warm welcome. And for those who love to get out and explore, why not hike up to Brown Willy (4.5 miles), the highest point in Cornwall, or Roughtor, the neighbouring peak, both offering unforgettable views. If you prefer a more leisurely pace, take a stroll or bike ride along the 17-mile Camel Trail, a former railway line that meanders through the picturesque countryside from Bodmin to the seaside town of Padstow. When you’re ready for a day at the seaside, head to the pretty coastal village of Port Isaac (9 miles) for the nearest sandy beach.
